Online games often have two teams shooting at each other to reach some objectives - like making the most kills or stealing x flags etc. Sometimes, one team will clearly be the victor and will boast about it - hence the 'owned/pwned' ('we owned your team' - net culture). More often, the losing team will blame lag (lag between command - i.e. moving a mouse - and action - moving in game), the map being unfair, or other players in your team being poor ('crap team').dlbpharmd wrote:OK, I don't get this, someone explain it to me.
